Governance Series: Understanding Financials to Strengthen Board Work

Learn to read your nonprofit’s financials with confidence in this free Governance Series session with Melyssa Brown-Porter.
About this Event

Board members don’t need to be accountants, but they do need to understand the numbers. Melyssa Brown-Porter will walk through the key financial statements and how to read them, and show how financial oversight helps boards make sound decisions and support long-term sustainability.

This session is part of our free Quarterly Governance Series for nonprofit leaders, board members, and professionals. Each session builds on the last but also stands on its own, so you can attend all four or choose the topics your organization needs most.

Upcoming sessions
